LOL !
Try this on: Last night in Morrisville, PA 30,000 folks showed up for Romney's rally in spite of the fact of the Marshall Tucker Band being the warm-up act !
How's that for a motivated base ? !
(just kidding .. old MTB fan from way back .. but like me, they ain't gettin' any younger ;-)
FR strikes again ! !
Chicago papers reports that 20,000 turned out to see Obama in Milwaukee. The only problem is the venue holds only 12,500.
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
